Mince pies and Christmas cake will be on offer, plus of course fabulous coffee, a selection of teas and hot chocolate. Actually, errr, it will be pretty similar to the normal cafe, except there will be some decorations. NOTE The party is Invite Only – and you’re ALL invited! A special invitation is extended to our regulars over the last glorious year, but anyone else who would like to check out what happens on a Sunday morning in the park, please come along! You just have to be local – this is a local cafe for local people. But obviously, visitors are welcome, too... Don’t forget there are still some Scotland Island mugs left – they make great stocking fillers! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all PON readers. See you there! Cafe Crew PS Since all the best parties are in the kitchen, we won’t bother putting the tables out, we’ll just squeeze into the little shed under the Kindy. Gone Fishing Gallery Christmas Eve 24th December With Christmas nearly here, the offshore artists at Gone Fishing Gallery are getting into the spirit of things with celebrations at the Church Point Gallery during the annual, legendary SCOTLAND ISLAND DOG RACE. GONE FISHING GALLERY IS OPEN FRIDAY 24TH DECEMBER FROM 1PM-7PM, so do join us. Registrations for the race, which begins at 6pm local time, must be made by 5pm, so that the four legged competitors can organize themselves into a barking start for the race from Scotland Island directly opposite Gone Fishing Gallery. The swim across to the mainland is a wonderful yearly event, looked forward to by locals and watched by the cheering hundreds gathered on the foreshore. Spend the afternoon listening to live music (SLY DOGS), eating food supplied on the lawn by Waterfront Café at Church Point and having a beer with your meal. Make use of the time in the area to visit the Gone Fishing Gallery situated in the old Pasadena-on-Pittwater. We will have made some interesting changes and updates to what’s available.

Ferry survey results, June 2010  Thank you to the nearly 100 people who answered the survey in June. It has been a benefit to know your thoughts on how we could improve the ferry service. We will be sharing this information with Pittwater Council and the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure so that we can communicate your needs as expressed to us. Please find responses to recurring suggestions and concerns in the pdf file here P.U.S.H Campaign Peninsula United to Secure Hospital Hi Friends and family, I need your help. PUSH are a dedicated group of Sydney's Northern Beaches locals who are determined to see that our area is given a fair go with health care in the future. The PUSH group is apolitical and made up from stakeholders from all areas of the community, clinicians, business people, politicians and community groups. P.U.S.H stands for Peninsula United to Secure Hospital. PUSH was formed out of the collective community concern over the deteriorating state of our health care facilities and the need for a new Level 5 Hospital. Both our local hospitals at Mona Vale and Manly are in a diabolical state and people's lives have been, and will be, put at risk if this situation continues. There are over 270,000 people living on the northern beaches peninsula with no Grade 5 hospital facility. The building of a modern facility for the peninsula should not come atc the expense of Mona Vale and Manly. Both these facilities must have a long term role to play in providing localised health services. Can you please click on this link and sign the petition and then forward the link to as many friends as possible. http://www.pushcampaign.net/ Let's make the Northern Beaches health facilities and new hospital a priority for our future.
